#health: Health information in the age of social media

Slides to a presentation that I gave to the BC Ministry of Health regarding recent developments in the sharing of health information on social media. Introductory in nature, but the talk was tailored to address conerns of administrators and policy makers; specifically, how best to characterize the activity of the public on social media sites that is happening in health, and how to account for health professional activity on these sites as well.

Presented as part of the “Retool for Research” lecture series hosted by the BC Ministry of Health Library.
